To a new member these may appear to be "cheating" though are allowed by last year's rules.
In the reddit post he mentions that his head mentor countered the accusations of cheating by saying "as long as the kids are inspired and having fun", leading me to think that the head mentors knows it to be cheating. But you are right, we definitely don't know for sure.
